all right guys grab me coffee get comfortable because today we're talking,
all about Trail comfort talking about the therm wrist ZC that's right we're
talking ass pads today heads cuz I am if you guys are new here
welcome to Maddie outdoors I am Maddie this is your first time check it on my
channel subscribe button up here that is for you if you Lin to hiking and
backpacking that is my thing I talk a lot about that
here I don't know if you can tell by the flag behind him Canadian I had a ton of
the Canadian Rockies so if that interests you at all like I said I
subscribe button over here that is for you but today we are talking to a SPAD
we're just gonna jump right into the technical specs of this thing the closed
cell foam pad folds up kind of accordion style so when you've got it folded up
like this it is 12 and three-quarter inches long it is 2 and 1/2 inches this
way and 2 inches this way it weighs 58 grams or 2 ounces and then when you open
it up it opens up to 16 inches length wise buy as before 12 and 3/4 inches
width wise it is 3/4 inches thick you originally get these things there is a
little grommet hole on the one side here there's like a little shock cord loop
that comes to like hold the whole thing together for for my intended purposes
that shock cord loop is a huge annoyance so I kind of ditched it
but yeah it does come with a little shock cord loop to kind of hold it all
together there's a therm res DC one side you got yellow the other side you got
this kind of silver reflective alright so we've got over the technical specs on
this thing let's talk about what I really really enjoy about the thermos DC
and I guess just like any asshat in particular but because we're
talking about the zc it's gonna pertain to the therm resi seat
so obviously keeping my ass warm I don't know what you personally I absolutely
hate sitting down on like a cold wet log I just I always keep this strap on the
outside of my pack I will just you know pull it off stick it down under my bud
it gives me something cushioned so I'm a little insulated to sit on awesome same
goes for kneeling on the ground you know put this down on the ground kneel down
on it you know helps my knees helps me not get you know like wet pants stuff
like that what I will also be using this for is inside my top quilt this is going
to go in to keep my heels and my calves insulated the reason for that is because
I've gone to a partial under quilt now so my under quilt ends at my calves so
this is going to slide into my top quilt and my heels and calves are gonna rest
on top of this and that's what's gonna keep ya my heels and calves insulated on
the underside and we're gonna end this with probably one of the most
understated uses of one of these sit pads which is Fanning a fire if you're
ever having a difficult time getting a fire going and you're just you're
working with wet wood you've got a decent bed of coals and you just can I
get the flames to catch and you're constantly blowing on it if you got one
of these things it makes a world of difference you just you get her whipping
up and down you get that air flowing through ya just you know a little bit of
a tip there if you've never done it before
definitely gonna do it now it's gonna help you out but yeah if that helps you
guys out at all if you got any questions at all pertaining to the Z seat you have
any questions for me at all let me know in the comment section down below I'd
love to help you guys out as always I am Maddy thank you guys so much for
